The economies score, \(xeco '\), is calculated using the following equation;
\[j ' = \frac{\frac{C_{i}}{C_{r}}}{\frac{T_{i}}{T_{r}}}\]
where \(C_{i}\) is the number of coastal jobs in year i, \(C_{r}\) is the number of coastal jobs in 2005, \({T_{i}}\) is the total number of jobs statewide for year i and \({T_{r}}\) is the number of jobs statewide in 2005.
